Map Your Bike Routes In Salt Lake City

Just finished a test run with voloroutes.org and did a route for the ride we took for the first December 15th Blackout (http://www.saltcycle.com/2007/12/black.html).

Here is the result:

As seen on the map, minimum, maximum and last elevation are recorded in addition to the total distance. A map is displayed representing the elevation and its change, total gain and grade. All these tools are excellent for determining a bicycle route for any event, or recording a recent ride that you rode in. This will be a perfect tool for keeping a bicycle log (http://www.saltcycle.com/2007/12/streak.html) of bicycling adventures.


To create a bicycle map is simple. Once you are on the main website http://veloroutes.org/bikemaps/ find Salt Lake City by entering "Salt Lake City, Utah" into the box at the top of screen titled, "enter a place to find". Then start by clicking and drawing your route and discovering how it works. I will leave the rest of it up to you to explore. Its pretty simple, and if you get lost you can visit http://veloroutes.org/help/.


This link, along with many others will be located in the slc cyclist resource directory, linked from saltcycle.com on the left hand side of the page.

(additional thanks to Psychenaut for giving me this linkage.)
